The formation of the planets

Icarus, 1968
Abstract The possibility of formating a planetary system, starting from a diffuse rotating cloud of gas and dust, as a result of accretion by a proto-Sun is investigated. It is found that a ring of relatively high density is formed in the equatorial plane of the proto-Sun gas cloud system.

Planet Formation

2018
Abstract Modern observational techniques are still not powerful enough to directly view planet formation, and so it is necessary to rely on theory. However, observations do give two important clues to the formation process. The first is that the most primitive form of material in interstellar space exists as a dilute gas. Some of this

Formation of the planets

Vistas in Astronomy, 1980
Abstract There are discussed briefly the following topics concerning the formation of the planets: 1.Formation of the protoplanetary nebula from a rotating interstellar magnetic cloud 2.The mass and temperature distribution in the protoplanetary nebula 3.The formation of planets by colliding planetesimals and by gas accretion 4.The distances, spin ...

The Formation of Planets

2001
This chapter presents the main characteristics of the formation scenario of the solar system. The fist sections summarize the observational constaints and the input of stellar physics, and reviewprevious formation models. The next section describes the currently accepted model, based on the collapse of a protoplanetary nebula into a disk and the ...
